Michael Savage’s Bold Rebuke
Michael Savage, a well-known conservative radio host, has publicly condemned Candace Owens for her recent conspiracy theories following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. Savage accused Owens of spreading rhetoric that could incite violence against Jewish communities, drawing a parallel to Louis Farrakhan’s controversial speeches. This rebuke highlights a significant fracture within the conservative movement, as Savage represents a traditional, pro-Israel stance against Owens’s conspiratorial faction.
Owens, who recently left The Daily Wire amid antisemitism allegations, suggested that Israeli actors were involved in Kirk’s death. These claims have been widely rejected by Savage and others within the conservative community. The controversy erupted with Savage’s viral radio rant, which called for the rejection of antisemitic rhetoric to preserve conservative values.
Conservative Movement’s Internal Conflict
The assassination of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025, became a flashpoint for conspiracy theories within the American right. Candace Owens, a former communications director for Turning Point USA, leveraged her platform to promote narratives implicating Israeli involvement without evidence. This move was condemned by Michael Savage, who emphasized the dangers of such rhetoric.
Owens’s reputation has suffered within mainstream conservative circles, as her claims lack substantiation and contradict evidence from TPUSA insiders and ongoing FBI investigations. The backlash against her conspiracy theories has intensified debates over antisemitism and foreign policy within conservative media.
Impact on Conservative Media and Organizations
The fallout from Owens’s conspiracy theories has broader implications for conservative media and organizations. There is increased scrutiny on antisemitic rhetoric and a potential for realignment within the movement to distance from fringe elements. Jewish advocacy groups are intensifying efforts to combat antisemitism.

Conservative organizations like Turning Point USA, now led by Kirk’s widow Erika Frantzve, are focused on preserving Kirk’s legacy and distancing themselves from Owens’s divisive narratives. As social media amplifies these disputes, the conservative movement faces challenges in maintaining cohesion and addressing internal divisions.
